Chatime

I went to Chatime four times during their grand opening week in late October at the Markham location. I had the buy one and get one free drink coupon that was valid for a week so my friends and I made good use of it.

I got the Grass Jelly Roasted Milk Tea (regular size is $4.75 including tax) the first two times I went. The first time I went with friends. I ordered no ice and 30% sugar. They still gave me ice and I found it very sweet still even though the amount of sugar is suppose to be less. The second time I went with my work colleague. She loves the Grass Jelly Roasted Milk Tea and that’s all she ever orders at Chatime. I ordered no ice and no sugar. This time there wasn’t any ice and it wasn’t as sweet as the first time. I like the Grass Jelly Roasted Milk Tea with no sugar and no ice when it’s not scorching hot outside.

I had the Matcha Red Bean Milk Tea (large size) the third time I went with my colleague again. I had it with 30% sugar and no ice. At first I was going to order it no sugar but the cashier remarked that “it would be so bitter!” so I decided to add a little bit of sugar to it. I didn’t find it bitter and it was a nice green tea taste.

I had the Roasted Tea Latte (regular size is $4.75 including tax) the fourth time I went with another work colleague. It’s creamier and smoother than the Roasted Milk Tea.

Overall, I would definitely go there when I have a coupon or when it’s heavily discounted or when my friends want to go. Otherwise, I find that the drinks are too pricey for regular consumption.
